General possible wheel sizes for Fiat Panda

[nrbrowning]

I am looking to buy from ebay/loot/ or a car breakers 4 wheels fitted with 4 tyres for my Panda Dance. I have checked the website giving the Panda wheel sizes and it seems all the smallish Fiats more or less use the same wheel configuration.

Which wheel/tyre sizes fit on without any trouble to the Panda? I am not interested in performance improvements, simply cosmetic really. I had in mind 13" or 14" Alloy/Steel from a Punto, Tipo or a Seicento. I dont what to change the brakes, nor use spacers. Will this change affect the MOT or my insurance premiums?

Thanks,
nrb

The italian specs cover those 2 sizes:135/80 R13, 155/65 R13


Only a dream inside my head...take a look at the avatar! (Oh...no!!)

Hi, I've been running multi-spoked alloy 13" 155's on a Seat Marbella/Abarth special. The rear ones melted thier way through the body rub strip and the front ones occasionally fouled the inner wings.:I

HHmmmmmmm

Thanks for the replies. The website http://www.abacotyres.co.uk/FITMENTGUIDE.html#FIAT

details which wheels will fit rather than which ones will rub the insides of the car away. It lists all but the Ullysee will fit onto a Panda. It looks like I may be looking for an alloy 135/80 R13 or 155/65 R13?

I am a bit unsure here since I have read one reader has 15" alloys from a punto with no problem. I know also that tyres come in different thicknesses but can someone explain in simple terms what wheels/tyres will fit my Fiat Dance without rubbing or needing me to recalibrate the speedo.
thanks
